range report.
after playing with the cool lil windage and elevation knobs i set up a target at 25 yds. to get on paper.
1st shot drilled the paster.
so i moved it out to 50 yds. and produced this group standing freehand.
i couldnt see those holes i had to walk up to see what happened.
for me this is great shooting .
iron sighted freehand.


it really does make a world of difference.

at 50 yds opens are fine but at 100 big difference
